I decided I want to create a story, possibly a comedy, that involves a family that has accidental swaps with their own selves in a parallel universe.
I also want to introduce a family drama into the mix, likely caused by the confusion of swapping universes.
I believe the building blocks of my story will be arranged in a petal form, and the player will be at home with their family. The story will progress as the player moves from room to room and interacting with the family.

I think making a comedy story is really interesting. And i think adding in the family element is going to get the player more involved and maybe relate. Very cool idea and good luck.
When I was learning to program I made a text based game about my extended family poking fun at their personalities and habits as you went around helped them with different chores. I showed it to my family and they liked it, until they realized that EVERYONE in my family was in the game as a character, so the person you were playing was a stranger, and they all got kind of creeped out. For your own project are you going to model the dimension-travelling family based off of people that you know? It seems sort of cheap and tropey, but I think taking real individuals with strong personalities and using them as character models is really fun and rewarding.
